Tucson, Arizona Market Conditions
When evaluating the real estate market one important indicator to notice is the months of inventory. Â In a balanced estate market the months supply of homes on the market or the rate of the homes sales is approximately 6 months. Â By definition a balanced real estate market implies the number of homes currently on the market divided by the number of homes sold in the last 6 months.
The Tucson real estate market is a local market, this simply means that each neighborhood or community has market conditions within that area. Not all neighborhoods or communities in Tucson are considered a “balanced” market.
In Tucson many of the low end pricing favors the sellers right now. For example, one of the Vallee Gold Team listings priced under $250,0000 received two offers the first day on the market for list price. Â In 2012 the average days on market for a home in Tucson was 82 versus today at 61.
